I guess it depends on the particular species.

I have a N. alata hung up with the vandas, and it is taking over the GH with
its vines. Lots and lots of red pitchers, too.

I don't think a terrarium is a good idea,

Nepenthes need a LOT of light - along the lines of vandas. How are you
going to do that in a terrarium?



That`s really interesting. I`ve got two nepenthes and didn`t succed
pushing
them to produce pitchers. At first I thought it`s a matter of too low
humidity, but later it turned out that it was just too bright for them.
Now
they are standing in much more shady, but also more dry spot and the
pitchers are really nice.
